STEP 2. Check whether the diagnosis code is
reset.
Replace the transmitter by which the diagnosis code
is set with a new one, register the key (Refer to

P.42A-134

.), and recheck if the diagnosis code is

set.
(1) Push the lock switch or unlock switch of

transmitter.

(2) Check if the diagnosis code is set.

Q: Is the diagnosis code set?

YES :

Replace ETACS-ECU and register the ID

codes (Refer to

P.42A-134

).

NO :

The diagnosis is complete.

Code No.B1A10 Keyless/KOS key 1 low battery

Code No.B1A11 Keyless/KOS key 2 low battery

Code No.B1A12 Keyless/KOS key 3 low battery

Code No.B1A13 Keyless/KOS key 4 low battery

Code No.B1A14 Keyless key 5 low battery

Code No.B1A15 Keyless key 6 low battery

Code No.B1A16 Keyless key 7 low battery

Code No.B1A17 Keyless key 8 low battery

CAUTION

When replacing the ECU, always check that the
communication circuit is normal.

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

ETACS-ECU sets the diagnosis code No. B1A10,
B1A11, B1A12, B1A13, B1A14, B1A15, B1A16, or
B1A17 when it receives low battery voltage signal
from the transmitter.

JUDGMENT CRITERIA

• B1A10: ETACS-ECU determines that the abnor-

mality is present when it receives low battery volt-
age signal from the transmitter 1 (the first
transmitter registered in ETACS-ECU) five con-
secutive times.

• B1A11: ETACS-ECU determines that the abnor-

mality is present when it receives low battery volt-
age signal from the transmitter 2 (the second
transmitter registered in ETACS-ECU) five con-
secutive times.

• B1A12: ETACS-ECU determines that the abnor-

mality is present when it receives low battery volt-
age signal from the transmitter 3 (the third
transmitter registered in ETACS-ECU) five con-
secutive times.

• B1A13: ETACS-ECU determines that the abnor-

mality is present when it receives low battery volt-
age signal from the transmitter 4 (the fourth
transmitter registered in ETACS-ECU) five con-
secutive times.

• B1A14: ETACS-ECU determines that the abnor-

mality is present when it receives low battery volt-
age signal from the transmitter 5 (the fifth
transmitter registered in ETACS-ECU) five con-
secutive times.

• B1A15: ETACS-ECU determines that the abnor-

mality is present when it receives low battery volt-
age signal from the transmitter 6 (the sixth
transmitter registered in ETACS-ECU) five con-
secutive times.

• B1A16: ETACS-ECU determines that the abnor-

mality is present when it receives low battery volt-
age signal from the transmitter 7 (the seventh
transmitter registered in ETACS-ECU) five con-
secutive times.

• B1A17: ETACS-ECU determines that the abnor-

mality is present when it receives low battery volt-
age signal from the transmitter 8 (the eighth
transmitter registered in ETACS-ECU) five con-
secutive times.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Battery failure in the transmitter

• Malfunction of the transmitter

• Malfunction of ETACS-ECU

SYMPTOM PROCEDURES

Inspection Procedure 1: Keyless entry system does not work.

CAUTION

Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the
input and output signal circuits are normal.

OPERATION

The lock/unlock signals from the transmitter are
received by receiver antenna, and then sent to
ETACS-ECU from receiver antenna. When
ETACS-ECU receives signals from the key reminder
switch, all the door switches and the tailgate latch,
ETACS-ECU actuates the keyless entry system.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of the key reminder switch

• Malfunction of the door switches

• Malfunction of the tailgate switch

• Malfunction of the transmitter

• Malfunction of the driver's door lock actuator

• Malfunction of the receiver antenna

• Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

• Damaged harness wires and connectors

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

STEP 1. ETACS-ECU coding data check
(1) Use M.U.T.-III to read out the option coding

information in ETACS-ECU (Refer to GROUP 00

Table ).

(2) Check if the "Keyless function" is "Enabled."

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Operate the M.U.T.-III to set the option
coding "keyless" to "enabled," and check
the trouble symptom.

STEP 2. M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnostics

check if the following function operates normally:

• Hazard warning lamp

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 5.

NO :

Refer to GROUP 54A

− Malfunction of

ETACS-ECU power supply circuit .

normally.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 6.

NO :

STEP 6. M.U.T.-III data list
Check for the signals related to the keyless entry
system operation.

• Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF) posi-

tion.

• Remove the ignition key from the ignition key cyl-

inder.

• Close the driver's door.

• Close the front passenger's doors.

the doors can be locked and unlocked normally.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 4.

NO :

Refer to Trouble symptom chart

P.42A-129
